Behaviour:We want to make sure all our students get the most out of our classes! So as a courtesy to other students, disruptive behaviour will not be tolerated. Our teachers are industry professionals, and are to be respected as such.

Attendance:You should be at every class! Theatre is an art that relies on each other and each team member. One person’s absence can affect the whole number/scene. We give our students opportunities for parts and solos, however, these can only be given to students with good attendance that we can trust to be there. These are a privilege, not a right, and can be redistributed at the teacher’s discretion.

For parents and guardians...

Fees:A student's fees are due within 14 days of the date of the invoice. In Terms 1 and 3, this includes a $110 (i.e. $100 plus GST) deposit for the following term. Any fees not received by the due date will incur the $22 (i.e. $20 plus GST) late fee and the student will not be allowed to attend further classes until the fees are paid.

Commitment:We require students to complete at least two consecutive terms (i.e. one semester) to ensure a smooth rehearsal process and performances at the end of Term 2 (Informal Showcase) and Term 4 (Annual Soirée).

Drop Off & Pick Up:Please stay with your child until the teacher takes the students into class. Please pick up your child at the end of the lesson from outside the venue. If you have arranged for another parent to pick up your child please email us this permission.

Missed Lessons:If your child is sick or unable to attend a class, please inform us so we can let the teachers know. Unfortunately no reductions or make-up classes can be given for missed classes as each class learns different songs, and we still ahem our expenses to cover.

Safety and Injuries:We expect the children to follow the teacher’s safety rules and instructions to keep safe. If however an injury occurs the teacher will assess the injury, give first aid if necessary and contact the parent. Dancing is a sport where injuries can occur, and as the participant or parent of a child doing musical theatre activities in our class, you must agree to release, hold harmeless, and discharge Applause Musical Theatre Academy from all claims, liabilities, expenses or judgments, including legal fees and court costs for any occurrences in connection with any activities that occur during tuition.

Photos/Videos:Photos and videos may be taken of students during class and performances. Applause Musical Theatre Academy holds the right to use these photos for promotional purposes (unless otherwise agreed).
